'Historian Frank Niess presents Che Guevara, an in-depth biography of social revolutionary Che Guevara (1928-1967) that seperates myth from reality. Expertly translated from the original German by Nathaniel McBride ... Notes, a chronology and an index round out this in-depth portrait of a charismatic and courageous (if at times ruthless) man who dedicated his life to his beliefs.' Internet Bookwatch
